The Egg

Product Information

You were on your way home when you died. It was a car accident. Nothing particularly remarkable, but fatal nonetheless. You left behind a wife and two children. It was a painless death. ... And that’s when you met me." You can take whatever message you want out of it, but to me it was - treat others as you'd want to be treated yourself, if for no other reason than a bit of selfishness. It's memorable, and feel-good and, if you think about it for a little while, has potential to be just a little disturbing. This book has a lot of in-depth discussion of scientific material that I found really interesting but if you're not curious about that level of detail its easy to skim through to get to the practical advice - the end of the book includes an action plan, which distills everything into a handy list. And nice to know that the practical advice is based on scientific studies, unlike other fertility books I've read. I found this book so helpful. You hear about things like BPAs and other chemicals being bad for you, but I was never sure exactly what I should be avoiding and to be honest it all just seemed too difficult. This is the first book I've read that really puts it all together, explains what you should avoid and what the risks are, and also what positive things you can do, what nutrients are important, etc. I also had no idea how much much of an impact you could make to your fertility by making a few simple changes.

Overall, this is a good read. However, I find that some information are written redundantly all throughout the book, though the author might just want to reiterate to the readers that the facts presented here are based on researches done by fertility experts from all over the world; some proven and others are still under study. Still, I feel like it is unnecessary to repeat the similar information in almost every chapter when more examples or situations should have been added instead. Every time you victimized someone,” I said, “you were victimizing yourself. Every act of kindness you’ve done, you’ve done to yourself. Every happy and sad moment ever experienced by any human was, or will be, experienced by you.” Whether you are readying yourself to get pregnant, have been trying to conceive for a long time, prepping for IUIs or IVFs, or have gone through several miscarriages… whatever step of the journey you are at, this is a must read.

this was an interesting read. not looking to become pregnant any time soon but i'm on a quest to better understand fertility and the intricacies of uterine ownership lol. i don't have much to critique here because it didn't seem to veer too far into fear mongering territory, though some of the fixes suggested seemed a little extreme to me. Is it anything life-changing? No. But it's free. And at least he didn't try to charge his fans money for a garbage creation like some authors did. I loved the art. It was also a nice concept and the message is pretty good in itself that sometimes you just have to let go but the text and the execution wasn't that great. I loved the first book in the series but this doesn't compare for me. This resource is a reflective aspect to help your children reflect more on different aspects of the story.

Seattle Times, Dec 16, 1986, p. H1 . The Egg and I has also been claimed to have "spawned a perception of Washington as a land of eccentric country bumpkins like Ma and Pa Kettle." [9] MacDonald's defenders point out that in the context of the 1940s, such stereotyping was far more acceptable. MacDonald faced two lawsuits over the book’s content (see below); plaintiffs did not prevail, although the judge indicated he felt they had shown that some of the claims of defamation had merit.

There IS a large focus on supplements which not everyone will like.

The story is about "you" (in the second person), and God, who is "me" (in the first person). God says that you have been reincarnated many times before, and that you are soon to be reincarnated once more, leading to quite a few existential questions.
